Alternative locations

[PinkSleepingBeauty]

Hey! Just wondered if there are any other alternative ceremony locations to the ones listed on the website? Or if Disney offer any flexibility if you come up with an alternative yourself? Just curious, wasn't sure if it all set in stone or if there is any movement? :)

I'm not sure. I did a special event back in 06 and the manager for the event was the same woman who at the time was managing DFTW. (I'm sorry, the name escapes me.) I remember we were talking about weddings, I was interested in all the details from having worked them so often. It seems like she was telling me about locations that are not normally on the list, but again, this was in 06, so my memory may be poor.

She was very nice and it did seem like they could be flexible to an extent. I'm sure a lot of it would depend on where you want it. Resort locations might be easier than theme park locations. I remember doing a wedding at Sunset Point at the Poly, but that is not a listed venue. I don't know if it was listed in 06 and then taken off the list, or if it was soemthing they had requested. It never hurts to ask!

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, i just wondered, like you said 'you never know until you ask' :)

The manager is Cindy.

We went through a ton of possibilities. The answer we got basically is that it depends where. The MK isn't flexible - but the other parks are as long as the ceremony is before or after operating hours. Some hotels are really flexible like the GF, some hotels won't allow anything like the WL (other than the escape). I would come up with a list of your dream places and then ask Bill.

This is a great site for viewing some of the lesser known venues: http://adisneymeetings.disney.go.com/media/dwm/en_US/media/tools/ipm/IPM.html
